Did you ask your reseller?  What did they say?

In the standard Generic 5 Axis posts for a Trunnion machine you will see this switch in mi9 called Nutating Bias. It should really say Primary Axis for trunnion machines. This is the control in that post.

thank you!  I was able to make the saddle (A axis) tilt negative (towards the operator), where I want it but now the Y axis is on the wrong direction, would you know how to fix this?

Sounds like you need to talk to your reseller to get this sorted out.
